Hi!
Sorry that I write but now…
Too bad that I could not join your discussion yesterday – but at the moment I am busy to organise an event in Munich. For that reason, I am not able to join your discussion tomorrow in the afternoon. I have to pull the brake for a few days – sorry.
I just galloped through the “Charter 47”, visited your site and checked out the links. Sounds very interesting and promising!
My proposal would be to discuss next week on the phone. We have to learn to know each other finitely! Please keep me posted about your conversation!
Looking forward for the next phone discussion.
Best,
Andreas

Hi Klaus,Can we talk tomorrow? The links looks very interesting – easier to discussthem on the phone. What about 4PM CET tomorrow?;-)S*——-Oprindelig meddelelse——-Fra: Klaus [mailto:klaus@hammermueller.at]Sendt: 3. april 2006 17:23Til: Søren Winther LundbyCc: Emmanuel Charpentier; Andreas HeindlEmne: Our discussion today – neweurope.orgJust to sum things up, what we’ve discussed:(1) Funding – is a problem because of lack of money for theparticipatory E.U. initiativebuta successful participatory initiative should be able to rise money fromthe people anyhow, as the Dean campaign did proove:http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=ur2&tag=ausdauersport-21&camp=1638&creative=6742&path=ASIN%2F0060779594%2Fqid%3D1137135227%2Fsr%3D8-2%2Fref%3Dsr_8_xs_ap_i2_xgl→ we would need to be THAT good!I don’t worry about the money first but how to aggregate sufficientattention from people. (Money can’t buy eyeballs) If we con "inspire"people the money will follow. (e.g. see google)(2) Communication tools – the technology is ready (even the legal baseis in place) – modern tools need to be applied to communicationprocesses. That would enable to leverage from “the wisdom of crowds”.Some examples how crowds can be smart (or not so smart):http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/redirect?link_code=ur2&tag=ausdauersport-21&camp=1638&creative=6742&path=ASIN%2F0349117071%2Fqid%3D1131952759%2Fsr%3D8-1%2Fref%3Dsr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl=> Modern communication technology enables real “two way” communicationbetween literally millions of people in real time.(just one example: IBM did this with 350.000 employees in anonline-discussion which took place 72h around the globe – the resultsare used to restructure the company)=> The challenge is to ask the “right” questions(3) How to pull things together?* If people believe that their input “matters” they will flock to that site* If many people are on a site our representatives will pay attention* If representatives pay attention more people will participate on thatsite …We might start with the people or with or representative, or both … wejust need to get the engine going:* Pick the right topics which are on the people’s agenda* Get representatives committed to listen, care – and to fight for theresultsLet’s make a follow up confcall …Enjoy, Klaus
